Two major standouts from this game - first, the story was told in a really compelling way through the voices in Senua's head, both the friendly and malicious ones. Particularly, Druth's stories of mythology that clearly latched on in Senua's head. Her disability is really on full display and playing the game you really feel a connection with her as being a part of herself. The story is so tragic, but filled with hope in processing grief. The mechanic that was a huge standout was the way they told us at the start of the game, you can pretty much only die a certain amount of times then your save gets deleted. That mechanic really made each life matter in a way I haven't experienced much before. I found myself sweating in fights or even between fights running from the beast or balancing on a beam. I think there were a few puzzle scenarios which weren't very apparant, but overall everything clicked and I would say this was a very immersive cinematic experience.
